Is capable of understanding about ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY FIVE WORDS and gestures.

Can actually count to five.

Can perform very basic math in its head, especially when it comes to food.

And is so good at reading human body language, it can make calculated decisions about who to beg for food from based on the best chance of success.That is why when Brad Weiser speaks to his dogs he puffs out his chest so that they can see the gesture of Brad being the alpha dog in his house hold. Amazing!!
